A Personal Service, clearly explained
At Gin & Tonic Travel, we take the time to understand how you want to travel and look after the details that make your trip your own. Our service fees support the research, thoughtful planning and personal attention we provide—from your first conversation with us through your return home.
Your discovery call and initial consultations are complimentary. These conversations help us understand your travel plans and explain how we can help. Once you engage our services, planning and research fees become due before that work begins. We’ll confirm the applicable fees with you in advance.
Our service fees
All amounts are in Canadian dollars, plus applicable HST.
Travel planning and research — $75 per person
For the research and planning involved in preparing your trip. This fee becomes due once you engage our services, before planning and research begin.
Family planning rate — $200
For parents and their children living in the same household and travelling together for the entire trip. We may also extend this rate to families travelling with adult children who live separately, provided everyone shares the full itinerary. We’ll confirm the applicable rate before planning begins.
Airline ticketing — from $40 per ticket
The fee depends on the ticket type and arrangements required. We’ll confirm the amount before issuing your tickets. Airline ticketing fees are additional to any applicable planning fee.
Changes after booking — $75 per person, per travel component changed
For arranging changes you request to an existing booking. A travel component means a separately booked part of your trip, such as flights, a hotel stay or a cruise.
We aim to keep our fees fair and proportionate to the work involved. Routine supplier changes are generally handled at no extra charge. When more extensive work is needed, we’ll discuss a reasonable fee with you in advance to reflect the time and care your arrangements require.
Cancellations — $150 per person, per travel component cancelled
For processing a cancellation you request and managing the related booking administration.
Our change and cancellation fees are separate from any airline, cruise line, hotel or other supplier charges. Fare differences may also apply. We’ll explain the applicable costs before proceeding.
Large groups and corporate travel
Please contact us for a service proposal tailored to your requirements.
A note about payment
Service fees pay for the professional work involved in your travel arrangements and are non-refundable, including if you subsequently decide not to book or travel. We’ll confirm payment requirements before providing the relevant service.
